What SECO is doing is theft. They have no right to declare that they will keep MY money if I fail to respond to their notice.

What is to stop any person or business from sending you an email that they are going to take YOUR money for any amount unless you “opt out”?
If you believe what SECO is doing is theft and that they have no right to do that, our legal system is there to help you. Please let us know how your lawsuit goes.

What is to stop any business from doing the same? Nothing, it happens all the time. Xfinity rates, credit card fees, software licenses.... All come with a disclaimer that the cost will increase unless you opt out by a certain time.

SECO is not getting any of your money, the 501(c)(3) is. The only reason they have any of your extra pennies is you accepted their terms and allowed them to. The only reason they will get any more pennies is because your time is spent here complaining about the donation rather than going through the simple steps to opt-out...the same steps you could have taken in the 120 days before Jan. 1, 2023.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
